Benefits to BIOX Corporation from Passage of Recent Fiscal Cliff Legislation Discussed in Video on InvestmentPitch.Com


Jan 11, 2013 (Newsfile Corp via COMTEX) -- <![CDATA[ BIOX Corporation (TSX: BX) realizes immediate benefit from the recent passage of "fiscal cliff" legislation, with Mackie Research analyst Raveel Afzaal giving the company a new buy recommendation and a price target of $0.80.



As everyone knows, the U.S. House of Representatives recently approved the Senate's "fiscal cliff" bill. Part of this larger package was "The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012", which included a biodiesel tax incentive, reinstating the biodiesel tax incentive through to December 31, 2013 and also making the incentive retroactive to January 1, 2012.

One of the company's expected to receive immediate benefits from this Act is BIOX Corporation, a renewable energy company that currently owns and operates a 67 million litre per year biodiesel production facility in Hamilton, Ontario.

BIOX has an innovative, proprietary and patented production process that is capable of producing the highest quality, renewable, clean burning and biodegradable biodiesel fuel utilizing a variety of feedstocks - from pure seed oils to animal fats to recovered vegetable oils with no change to the production process.

"The passage of this legislation is significant to BIOX as the retroactive clause allows us to recognize approximately Canadian $7 million in contingent revenue on product sold during calendar 2012, which will strengthen our earnings and cash position as part of the fiscal Q2 2013 reporting period. Extending the tax incentive through 2013 also allows us to capture additional value on product sold in the U.S. market" stated Kevin Norton, CEO of BIOX Corp.

Analyst Raveel Afzaal with Mackie Research stated, "While we approach business models that are dependent of government subsidies with caution, the impact of the announcement on BIOX's profitability and expansion plans cannot be ignored. As a result, we are revising our recommendations to BUY and increasing our target price to $0.80 per share."
